Not really sure what this is but I've added it to the side bar. Follow me! I don't update much so it shouldn't be too annoying.
Also - I'm back in on the Garden Deva Fall Open Studio Show. Coming your way Nov 5 and 6. These folks do it right. I'll be hosting my own booth this year with small jewelry objects to 3D pieces and wall hangings. Lots of new things - come see.

New Projects for 2008

2008-03-11T10:47:00.000-07:00

I am beginning work on a new line. It will be architectural icons of Tulsa that comprise of a combination of mosaic inlays and painted details. They are starting out at roughly 24" x 36" boards. I am looking to join more shows this year so I want to display smaller/less expensive pieces compared to the furniture line. I'm just now routing out for the inlays so look for pictures once the color begins.

My Loves

2007-01-06T13:30:00.000-08:00

I have been creating mosaics for about 12 years. Beginning with wall hangings and various flat pieces I migrated into furniture embellishments. By inlaying my designs into functional pieces it creates an unusual and endearing heirloom. Lately I have been expanding the glass inlays with a contination of design in acrylics. This is tedious work but a terrific outlet for me. Most of my time is spent with my two boys so I have included them as well. They both seem very understanding of mom's need to be creative.
